Browns Rumors: Alex Smith, Mitchell Schwartz, Evan Moore

Smelley is expected to compete for snaps at fullback as well as tight end, but the fact that the Browns love to collect tight ends, makes it seem like there’s a pretty good chance that someone is on the outs in Cleveland.

Mitchell Schwartz

Browns head coach Pat Shurmur mentioned that he’s not sure that second-round pick OT Mitchell Schwartz is NFL-ready at this point.

“I don’t know about NFL-ready,” Shurmur said, via the Akron Beacon-Journal. “He’s very sound in his fundamentals. That will give him a chance to speed up the process to be an NFL player.”

The good news for Schwartz is that there’s still plenty of time for him to win the spot and little competition standing in his way. Clearly, there’s work to be done on his part, but that can be said for any rookie that’s currently in Browns camp, other than Trent Richardson.
